One obvious thing that I'm not seeing addressed is the fact that the IVIS / voice control is probably better than the alternative (manually using the phone to dial numbers and type in messages). It's useful that the study points out that distraction is still happening and quantifies it, but I would have liked it if the authors measured distraction levels with doing the activity without voice control as well.
